SAP that people actually want to use.

UX Transformation

Most SAP rollouts get built, then quietly ignored. We design screens, workflows, and apps that your people will actually open, and then we measure adoption. As the first US-based SAP AppHaus Network Partner, human-centered design has been a part of Mindset from the start.

The real cost

Most rollouts quietly stall at 60 to 70% adoption.

What low adoption looks like

  • Shadow spreadsheets and side processes that route around SAP.
  • Workarounds that calcify into how the work actually gets done.
  • Training that never sticks, because the screen fights the user.
  • An ERP you paid for that half the team avoids.

What we design toward

  • Adoption you can measure

    Real usage data and usability scores.

  • Screens that collapse the busywork

    Multi-screen chores down to one. Fewer clicks, fewer errors.

  • Apps that don't require manuals

    Designs that don't require training decks.

  • Tools people choose to use

    Voluntary adoption, not a mandate.

Critical insight

An ERP nobody opens is a failed investment, no matter how clean the back end is.

Most rollouts quietly stall at 60 to 70% adoption.

Why us

We were the first US-based SAP AppHaus Partner.

Design isn't a service we bolted on. It's where Mindset started in 2010, as an R&D lab proving SAP could actually be good to use. We run a real AppHaus with hundreds of design-thinking sessions behind us.

We pair Design Thinking with Architecture Thinking, ensuring solutions that make sense to the people who'll use them, address the real problem, and are technically feasible.

How we work

Five phases. Most firms run three and miss adoption.

The last two are where adoption actually happens. We stay through it all.

  1. Phase 1

    Explore

    Understand the people, the work, and where things break.

  2. Phase 2

    Discover

    Frame the real problem to be solved first.

  3. Phase 3

    Design

    Prototype the path with the people who'll use it.

  4. Phase 4

    Deliver

    Build it on SAP, production-ready, not a mockup.

  5. Phase 5

    Run & Scale

    Measure adoption, refine, and roll it out for real.

Proof

Adoption, in the numbers.

Chemicals

SAP ECC

Global water & hygiene company

Mindset built the the Fiori platform platform for the company, a Fiori usability layer running across every sales division, and it landed 99% user adoption with a 90% cut in approval time, saving an estimated 20-25 headcount across the company.

Healthcare and Life Sciences

SAP Cloud Platform

Global Medical Device Manufacturer

Mindset ran a Design Thinking engagement with the device maker's service and call-center teams, rebuilt service order processing on SAP Fiori, and cut a multi-screen maze down to a single screen. Adoption climbed sharply across the field service team, then in 2025 the work evolved again with a joint SAP x Mindset Agentic AI Design Workshop.

SAP CRM

Mindset ran Design Thinking with Patterson's field technicians, built a new SAP Fiori service app in two weeks, and within 16 weeks of rollout 85.9% of the team had adopted it voluntarily, cutting 60-day open service orders from 13,000 to under 4,000 and capturing $1.3M in annual revenue.

MIND and the agent era

The new UX is human + machine.

Design used to stop at the screen. Now the real question is which decisions should a person make, which should an agent handle, and how to keep people in control of both. That balance is the design problem of the next decade and one we are built for.

The human side

We design the judgment calls, the screens, and the moments people need to stay in the loop. Design thinking, run in a real AppHaus.

The machine side

We don't just design around AI, we build it. A fleet of Joule agents, built by us and validated by SAP.

MIND ties it together

Our growing library of proprietary tools and accelerators, including tooling that measures real Fiori adoption, so the line between human and machine keeps getting sharper.
